The first non-rainy walk for over a month! Very wet underfoot and toes were swimming after first mile or so of wet grass and bogs all recently topped off with ample rainfall. Ease Gill was disappointingly dry even after all that rain, but a lovely place to walk, followed by splendid ridge walk, albeit a bit squelchy. Nice to be out in the sun again.
